The Vida Nueva weekend contains a series of talks given by a volunteer team of clergy, youth, and adults. The talks follow the basic themes of Christianity in its day-to-day application, and are followed by table discussions.

Worship during the weekend is in the Protestant tradition.

Young men and women from 15 through age 20 may attend.

Vida Nueva weekends are funded by contributions from each participant, and supported by the prayers and gifts of money and service from the Christian community around the world.
